Go and stay! Will the Bucks leave new players in the backcourt this summer and give up the veteran inside?

According to US media ActionNetwork reporter Matt Moore, inside veteran Brook Lopez is likely to choose to leave the Milwaukee Bucks after the free market opens this summer. Moore believes that he doesn't think the Bucks' squad will remain as they are, expecting they will leave Kevin Porter Jr., a backcourt player who joined the team midway, and most people who have spoken with Moore before think that Lopez is basically sure to leave, and that he may be one of the most notable players in the free market.

In the NBA regular season this season, Lopez made a total of 80 appearances in 82 games, averaging 31.8 minutes per game, averaging 13 points, 5 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.6 steals and 1.9 blocks, and 1.1 turnovers and 2.1 fouls, shooting percentage of 50.9%, three-point shooting percentage of 37.3%, and free throw shooting percentage of 82.6%. In the playoffs, Lopez played 5 games in total, with averaging 14.8 minutes per game, with averaging 5 points, 1.6 rebounds, 0.8 assists, 1 block, and 0.8 turnovers and 2.2 fouls. His shooting percentage was 36.4%, his three-point shooting percentage was 26.7%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 100%.

After joining the Bucks on the trading deadline, Porter Jr. made a total of 30 appearances for the Bucks in the NBA regular season, averaging 19.9 minutes per game, averaging 11.7 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 0.1 blocks, and 1.7 turnovers and 1.6 fouls. He shot 49.4%, three-point shooting percentage 40.8%, and 87.1% free throw shooting percentage. In the playoffs, Porter Jr. made a total of 5 appearances, averaging 30.2 minutes per game, averaging 11.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, 5.4 assists and 0.8 steals, 1.8 turnovers and 2.4 fouls, shooting percentage of 39.6%, three-point shooting percentage of 46.7%, and free throw shooting percentage of 84.6%.

Judging from the actual performance of the two players, Lopez's performance during the playoffs was really disaster-like. His effect on the court was very poor, his scoring ability was seriously insufficient, his offensive efficiency was very poor, and his shortcomings in movement speed on the defensive end were also constantly amplified. It is also because of the poor results on the court that Lopez has played less and less during the playoffs. In comparison, Porter Jr.'s performance is actually quite good. He is one of the few players in the Bucks who have good scoring ability and ball-holding offense. With Damian Lillard absent due to injury, he was able to take on a lot of responsibilities on the offensive end. Considering that the Bucks are indeed in a state of extreme shortage of people in the backcourt position, signing back Porter Jr. is also a reasonable operation.
